I need advice or help finding counsel. I hope this is the correct place to put this post.
I was traveling home from South Caroline last Saturday night and was pulled over on I95 out side of Kingsland. It seems the officer had pegged another car on radar that was coming up on my rear very fast. When the car realized it was a police car, he jumped in the middle lane leaving me in the fast lane. The officer pulled both of us over. The officer came up and asked if I was traveling with the other car since we both had Florida tags. I said, honestly, no. To make a long story short, he gave me a ticket for 89/70. Here's my problem..He said he got me on radar, my radar detector never went off. I also had my cruise set on 80 (yes, I know that is speeding and would have gladly accepted a ticket for 80/70). As you guys might know, 89 is a super speeder ticket and is very expensive and has more points. I also have an app on my car that gives me an alarm if i go over 85. There was no alarm. My wife and son were in the car, and witnessed the speed and no alarm or radar.
Any know of a good lawyer, as I can't just sit back and pay a ticket for something I wasn't doing.
